Last week I wrote a review of H&R Block At Home to take a look at some of the changes to H&R Block’s do it yourself tax software. In addition to the name change (it used to be known as TaxCut), there are a few other changes, including an enhanced interface, more user friendly terminology and instructions, free audit support, and more. One of the best features is the ability to try it out for free; you will only have to pay for it if you print it or decide to e-file. There are different versions to handle almost any tax situation, and you can give it a free test spin here (only paying if you purchase it): http://www.hrblock.com/.

Thanks for doing the giveaway!
I’m interested in learning more about student loan consolidation.
The most inspiring is usually the small side stories rather than direct tips or standard ways to save or handle money.
I’m interested in learning how to research companies in which to invest – for beginners.
Interest in knowing more about budget planning and/or getting rid of credit card debt.
Thanks for doing the give away,
Nice site! More info on financial aid for students please…
I used H&R Block (taxcut) the past 3 years and think it is just as good as turbo tax. After all, there is only one right way to calculate taxes. In my money blog (dollars not debt), I discuss my path to debt freedom.
Dollars Not Debt
Thanks for the giveaway! I would like to know more about online mortgage sites.
